Kill 7 billion people?

Come.
I need you to stay here. I have to meet someone.

Renautas publishes the "evernow" game,
So they're taking photographs of themselves
At different locations on the campus.
A japanese gamer named ren shimosawa set it up.

Hmm. Miko otomo.
This is a trojan horse to get past security.
She's here for the sword.
Get it out of here and to my house.
I don't need this.
Without epic, we are falling behind.
- Although molly's download was incomplete,
The epic units are still useful.
Our operatives are using them now,
And they've been distributed to law enforcement.
- Great.
The technology i've spent a year and billions of dollars
Developing is only a partial success.
- [sighs] we can just arrest them all
For trespassing.
It'll be easy to isolate them with the epic.
- No, these are our customers, and every single one of them
Has a cell phone with a camera.
We spoil their fun, it goes viral in an instant.
- You do want the girl, though.

Send one of you to get them. Be discreet.
